    do you have any closing duties you do naturally, now?

    what are they?

    are there any you can intentionally implement to improve your relationship with your space?

  • 576 || controlling red flags

    TW: there is mention of emotional abuse throughout this episode.


    the main goal of manipulation is a sense of CONTROL. Make sure you're comfortable enough in your own skin (and head) to make your own decisions. Common tactics to make you doubt yourself include but is not limited to: projection, dismissing, minimizing, triangulation, gaslighting, general control, guilt tripping, generalizations, love bombing, name calling, infantalizing, threatening, passive aggressive behaviors, etc.

  • 575 || sneaky manipulations

    TW: there is mention of emotional abuse throughout this episode.


    “The first sign to look out for is if you feel confused. You will rarely–if ever–be confused by someone who has nothing but pure, good, loving intentions with you. The second is if you feel hesitant or fearful to either address your confusion or speak your feelings openly. If you can’t ask a question or express your needs without it becoming an argument, that’s a red flag. When someone is defensive (turns the tables, shifts blame, over-explains), it can be a sign that they are feeling ‘caught.'” – Alexandra Rickeman, LCMFT

  • 573 || storage bog

    The more stuff I have, the less access I feel I have to any of it - thus feeling like I actually have less stuff. So recently, I have prioritized starting fresh + getting rid of shit I don't have the full intention of using.

  • 571 || dealing with passive aggressive people

    dealing with others who engage in passive aggressive behavior can be frustrating and cause more conflict in the long run, if we're not tactful with how we approach the situation. today, I discuss ways to increase tact + improve your approach towards those who are more passive aggressive in their interactions with you.

  • 570 || becoming less passive aggressive

    When I was younger and a chronic people pleaser, I found myself doing anything to avoid confrontation. This meant, I spent a lot of my time feeling unheard + unseen, so in an effort to feel heard without "stirring the pot" I ended up becoming more and more passive aggressive which caused more + more conflict.


    Here's how I started to rectify it.
